The investigation into Nahel’s death continues, with the hearing of a key witness. A good part of the day of July 3, the third occupant of the car driven by the teenager was heard by the IGPN on the circumstances of the tragedy.

A key witness leaves the premises of theIGPNaccompanied by his mother. He’s the front passenger of the car, Nahel’s childhood friend. He has just been heard by the police, nearly a week after fleeing on Monday July 3. Ihe 17-year-old had already delivered his version of the intervention of the two police officers on social networks. Words that the police have always denied. A video, and especially its audio, are at the heart of the investigations to determine who is telling the truth.

The IGPN continues its investigation

According to information from France 3, theIGPN think for now hearing the terms “Cut, cut, hands behind your head, cut!“. But the soundtrack is still being analyzed by the Gendarmerie Criminal Research Institute. In slow motion, we can clearly see a sudden movement of the second policeman, inside the passenger compartment, a few seconds before the shot. Nahel’s family lawyer calls for the immediate indictment of the second policeman. I’IGPN consider a blow indeed may have been carried by this official, but continues its investigation before any conclusion.
